Republicans; A Tradition of Messing with Texas. #Sold out. #Privatization #Plutocracy.

 


Its not as if Texas was enough of a mess before this.

A privatized electric grid. A winter disaster that killed many people because of Privatization, Ala Ronald Reagan. Many more died from the Republican designed privatization than the Texas Republican leadership wants to admit..

This is to say nothing about all the damage to the infrastructure in Texas from the lack of electricity during the #Snowmageddon storm.


Now the 2010 census is ready and its time to reapportion the congressional seats for the State and Federal legislatures.


The Republican leadership know they will loose leadership and both houses if they do not cheat and steal the next election. As if that was not enough the Texas Republicans are hoping to remove many people from the voting rolls and make it harder to vote. There are many more dirty tricks up their sleeves with more to come if they can pull it off. The Democratic leadership and other members have left the state and fled to DC to hopefully get some help from the Dems and stop this continuing disaster


I am from New Mexico, and was still living in New Mexico around the time of the 2000 Census. I remember the State Legislature of Texas was in session and the Democratic Party membership of the legislature left the state of Texas to prevent the Republicans for instituting a new Redistricting map for Legislative seats.


Some of the Texan Democratic Legislators showed up in Santa Fe. The governor of Texas said he was going to send the Texas Rangers to find them and Bring them back. Needless to say the Authority's in New Mexico were not real happy about that idea.

There was still some animosity about Texas and New Mexico. Going back to the time of Spain or the Mexican Revolution, The division of lands, by the Federal government. Everything west of the Rio Grande river in New Mexico was considered part of Texas at one time. New Mexico and many New Mexicans still had title to their land that were land grants from the Queen of Spain. There were Families that felt like the Border crossed New Mexico, more that once. The older People used to say “We didn’t cross the border; the border crossed us”

New Mexico has almost always been quite progressive, since there was such a large ethnic mix since before New Mexico was a state. The Spanish, who exterminated, or conquered dozens of Native tribes. The Scots-Irish that did not get land in the time of the Oklahoma land rush gave away a lot of Native Tribal lands to more foreigners. But I digress! I was Thinking about Oligarchy and Tyranny.


We Now have an Oligarchy of Unlimited Bribery of Unlimited, and Headed towards Tyranny of a single party that has no honor or any shame about Lying to keep their Phony Baloney Jobs.


They Think it is about Money and Greed, and the next election to keep getting massive donations from the corrupt corporations and criminals they are bought off by.


Call your Congressional Representatives and Senators.

Tell them its time to Stand on the Progressive side of History.

The Washington Switchboard. #202 224 3121

Let them know you are pissed off


The Wealth, Greed, and Lying must end
